Have you seen the guy who was inspecting his new truck and sliced his wrist open in the exposed edge by the tail light?

Also the leading edge of the truck is absolutely a pedestrian murdering device.

Most modern trucks are also terrible and need to have pedestrian safety rules applied to them, but at least they aren’t made with “bullet proof” sheets of stainless steel with literally knife sharp leading and trailing edges.

Sorry, we were having a language problem. You're using American truck and I'm using British truck, so we're talking about two totally different things.

Your truck is the pickup, mine is the long-haul thing. 😂

Aahhh, that makes sense.

There are still some major problems with the Semi trucks too though, but purely thermodynamically.

Probably going to take overhead charging on shorter routes to work. The Mid-west US is going to take swappable batteries or a huge leap in charging and capacity.

Happened to see this the other day, it would suggest that charging is more normal then we anticipate
